If you want your donors to stay uplifted by their philanthropy (and, as a corollary, if you want to continue to feel satisfied in your work with donors), then you’ve got to practice gratitude as a way of life. Donors don’t want you spending your money on this).

Holding events is a great way for nonprofits to raise money, engage constituents, and raise their profile. And if you don’t have a solid event planning strategy in place, your nonprofit’s next gala, fundraiser, or walkathon could end up costing you more in time, energy, and money than what your event ends up raising.
